Patience, humility and a lot of application at work. Those are the pillars on which Miguel Gutiérerez (20 years old) is rushing this last season of Marcelo in Madrid. In the next one, it is more than likely that the youth squad will already be part of the first team in his own right. In this, and even more so after these last flashes of the Brazilian side, Miguel is not having much prominence. Although when Ancelotti has had him he has always shown his best version: he has participated in ten games and the team has not lost with him on the field (against Sheriff the result was a draw when he was substituted).
Miguel Gutiérrez’s bet was important last summer. Always in very good harmony with the club and with the fixed idea in mind of making a place for himself in the first team of Madrid, he opted to stay as third winger (in fact, he plays with Castilla) despite the fact that they did not lack Primera offers from several major leagues. With everything, now he feels that the plan is going according to plan. It only remains to wait for the season to end and for a new meeting to take place with Madrid in which his future will be decided. Miguel has a contract until 2024 and there is a clause in it that would modify it if he becomes part of the first team.
The future position of the youth squad is enviable. The left-back demarcation is one of the least urgent for the club, with him and Mendy for next season plus the option that Alaba will eventually cover (including Nacho) that position. Madrid will not strengthen on that flank and, to this day, Miguel feels that he is winning that important bet he made months ago.
